Ikea Besta shelves and door assembly and adjustment

- Do you want to avoid difficulties when assembling Besta doors and shelves from Ikea? Don’t rush to hire experienced furniture fitters - ready to assemble cabinets are not that hard to put together, you just need a little care and patience.
There are many opportunities to create a unique piece of furniture. The most functional storage unit is a combinations of drawers & shelves, the numbers of each can be adjusted to individual needs. Shelving units give plenty of space and make great homes for all sorts of things while drawers will help to keep smaller items tidy and in a place of their own.
There are two locking systems for the doors to choose from. I’ve used the push-open function which allows you to open the doors with a light push but if you prefer silently closing doors, soft-closing hinges are also available.
So if you have carefully reviewed the Ikea assembly instructions and you’re still not sure where to start watch my video showing how to fit together the component parts of your newly bought purchase.
To complete the project watch my step-by-step tutorials:

Thank you so much, this video really helped me out!!
Well, in short, that's one of the best instructional vidoes I've ever watched in my life!
I'm literally at the moment installing a one, and was extremely anxious about installing it properly to be perfect, didn't know about the adjustments!!
Thanks - came here after being confused by the Ikea bag cartoons for assembly that I could not figure out - I see now it is for the adjustments to level in different directions - this video is really a frustration resolver, thank you!
I was assembling one of the larger TV benches with a combination of drawers and cupboards. This and other videos made by you was a flatpack lifesaver for me. Also very refreshing it's not a timelsapse like so many others. I was having real trouble with the alignment. It would never have occurred to me to tweak the different screws to get everything just so. I watched it a couple of times and paused as I completed each stage of assembly. Thank you, k-nemo, even more impressive you did this with protective work gloves. Kudos!
Thanks a lot for a very encouraging comment. I'm glad the films were useful
total lifesaver if i came here on line when i first started i wouldnt be here still trying to put it together hours and hours later fab video
Thank you a lot for a nice comment
Sei il numero 1 in 2 minuti mi hai spiegato tutto quello che Ikea non era riuscito a spiegare.
Grazie
This has just saved my life. These hinged are the worst thing I've ever come across
Thank you for this video! You're out here making the world a better place ;)
I hope I helped.
Saved my Saturday! And my living room. And for sure my sanity! THANK YOU!!
It's great to hear it. Thanks a watching
K-Nemo, awesome video! Concise, real-time, your video demonstrates what simple assembly really looks like. Thank you!
Thanks for a nice comment. It's great to hear you liked the film
Thank you so much, had this besta for years with pennies under the door, 30 seconds later after watching this vid no need for the pennies
Thanks a lot for watching :)
Thank you for showing the fine adjustments. No one else is doing that. Thank you!
Thanks a lot for your comment. It's great to hear that you liked the film
Thank you k-nemo, you make it easy to understand how to install and adjust the hinges for the doors. Excellent video.
Thanks a lot for a lovely comment
Like the magnification and lack of commentary. That made it easier to follow. Good job!
Thank you.
Thank you so much for that part where you showed how to adjust the doors very thoroughly
You're very welcome!
Wish I’d thought to look for a video explaining hinge adjustment years ago! Mystery solved - thank you 🙂
Glad it helped!
Omg! Thank you! We were going to return untill we came across your video!
Glad I could help!
Thanks you so much for this. Mine came without instructions. I’m usually good with stuff like this but this video really helped a great deal. Fantastic

Hey K nemo great job. Thank you. Job done.
Thanks and welcome
Merci! C’est super utile!
Thank you so much, surely kept me from going crazy. ;)
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the help
Happy to help
sooooo helpful! thank you!
You're so welcome!
This is the best video I found. Thank you so much. I don’t know what I would have don’t without your help!
Thanks a lot for watching and leaving a lovely comment, I'm really happy the video was useful.
I love the music and the thoroughness .... but I needed captions to explain how to raise/lower and level the doors. That’s the tricky and frustrating part. Everything else is self explanatory.
Thank you for watching and leaving a nice comment. It is a fair observation, but I though at the time the explanation is clear enough. Have you managed to regulate the doors eventually? I showed how to do it again in another film, if you want to check this one it might help: ruclips.net/video/viRPK8tXBs8/видео.html
One issue I had with a taller frame is that the hollowness of the frame let the sides 'bow' out slightly, even with the shelf support pegs screwed in that stop that happening (as there's some tolerance flex still). So when I installed my doors, I had to use the side to side adjustment to fix the doors from sagging. Worked, but also meant that the doors stick out past the frame on the opposite side from the hinge. Should I have just stacked smaller frames?
You. Rock. Thank you!
thanks
Thanks that was useful 👍
Glad it helped
2:02 this was the moment I needed to know. You don't find it on the ikea Manuel 😩😍
You’re a hero
Great video! Awesome job on the step by step tutorial. How do I level the shelf to the top of the door? I have a small level difference
Maybe the cupboard is not horizontal?
Fantastic Video
Thanks for watching and leaving a lovely comment
very helpful
Glad you think so!
so helpful!!!! ty!!!
Glad it was helpful!
just what i needed - thank you
You're welcome
@@k-nemo I wonder if you could help me, I have the 180x42x64cm Besta and in the instructions on page 24 they say to join the 3 units together using 2 screws, is this the only thing to join them together?
@@mizsab365 It will be enough
@@k-nemo Ah ok thank you
Great video!! I want strong shelf pins for heavier objects, what would you recommend?? Also, at the end of the video you showed 2 different shelf pins, where did you get the 1st set from??
Thanks for nice comment. All used pins are included in the set Ikea Besta.
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Danke!!
Most of those "Phillips" screws are actually Pozi-Driv screws (PZ-1, PZ-2). Make sure you use a PoziDriv bit on your screwdriver or else you'll strip the screw heads. Five years of experience talking here. I recommend a driver/drill on a low to medium torque setting instead of a hand tool. It'll save you a lot of time. Good decision to wear thin work gloves too. Assembling this stuff is painful enough without the metal edges carving up your skin.
Great suggestions. Thanks a lot for watching and a useful comment
Is it possible to complete unscrew the hinges off the besta frame so I can put it on a different one?
Lifesaver!
Thanks
I find that when I adjust my self to line up correctly that I've had to unscrew the top adjuster and tighten the bottom one so much the the hinge side is now out of line. I just can't get all 4 corners looking level and flush
Hola! Sabes si se puede poner las bisagras sin instalar la parte de abrir a presion? O necesariamente debe llevar esta apertura y no se le pueden colocar tiradores y abrir normal? Gracias!
Un video muy ameno y bastante claro!
1:36
No tienes que instalar esto.
I just finish installing my first 4 Besta but doors looked crooked so hope I can fix that!
What a shame!
Muchas gracias, aunque a mí no se me cierra bien la puerta, ni siquiera girando la tuerca del dispositivo como lo haces en el vídeo 😕😕😕
At 4:27 of the video... What is that part number support peg that's getting screwed in. I need to order those to stop the bowing of my Besta shelving unit.
It’s such a shame that besta drawers don't have such 3 axe adjustment system. All my doors are perfectly leveled and then there are drawers which ruin that grid :/
Why does that shelf bit at the end come in the bag with the hinges?? I don’t even have any shelves. Spent 15 minutes looking at the pictures trying so work out what it was for!!
Lieben dank
Geen dank😀
Geniooooossssssss!!!! Los ame!!!! No me cerraba la puerta jajajajajajajaj
Thanks for watching
Grazie mille
Prego
Nice vid would have liked a bit of led zep though
Next time! Thanks for watching
At the end you will mount the iron items for the shelf, but is this necessary ? Or how much weight can this one have? (5:22 minute)
Shelves adjacent to the door are installed on this. The same shelves adjacent to the back of the frame are installed on other hooks. The shelf is narrower than the frame.
www.ikea.com/gb/en/assembly_instructions/besta-shelf-dark-grey__AA-1227320-2-2.pdf
Thank you for your explanation! 🎉 this was not in our instructions! That makes sense!
what do these things @4:58 add since the plank is already resting on the smaller mounting pins (?)
For door shelves that are moved forward. The others reach the back panel and are mounted with smaller mounting pins.
The shelf is narrower than the frame and there would be a visible gap near the door.
The last part for the shelf does there go a screw in the shelf or not ? I dont see a screw for it🤷🏻
It should be included. Ask in the store.
Quedaría bien sujeta una puerta con solo las bisagras de arriba y abajo? La del medio no la puedo poner porque tengo los agujeros ocupados 😅
No vi la bisagra en el medio.
???
@@k-nemo perdón, he visto tantos videos que ni me fijé que está solo tenía 2, la mía es una puerta de 1.95m y lleva 3 😅
I have an issue with the hinges: the soft closing mechanism for the ones mounted on the left side of the besta don't work. Could you please tell what could be the reason?
ruclips.net/video/lt67ZQ_WmPU/видео.html
Try to adjust
@@k-nemo thanks but I was talking about the hinges not the push to open mechanism...
Would have been great but the end was truncated and obscured before fully showing the whole of the fitting of parts 115442 & 115444. It would have been nice to have had some commentary of captions
1:57 The spring thing refuses to work on the bottom door. The 2 on top work fine but it doesn't keep the bottom door closed and the spring thing just stays pushed in if we try to force the door closed. We've tried turning the cap thing like you did but nothing's working :( I see you're still responding to comments and stuff, hoping you can help!
Try pressing the springs with your finger, maybe some are defective and need to be replaced.
@@k-nemo Okay! Was hoping maybe we just did something wrong and it can be solved at home. But looks like we'll have to run back to the store after all 😅
Zoom it out !!
Minhas portas n ficam certinhas niveladas, algum segredo ?
Mostrei no vídeo como ajustar.
How the hell did you get your screws to screw in at 0:54? My screws just don't want to turn, and I'm clearly doing something wrong because every unit is like this for me.
Maybe you have defective hinges?
Nah I'm just an idiot. I was using a wrong screw driver head. A standard phillips didn't cut it I guess. Odd.
Like if you're in the middle of a move. We got this!
Dobra instrukcje ale sama w sobie regulacja ehhh trzeba mieć trochę wprawy kręcąc srubkami...
Training!
I do not understand the purpose of the four (2 left, 2 right) metal pieces that are the last things installed and exactly where they should be installed reltive to the shelves. My Bestå system has 12 doors, so it's' important to get this right the first time. BY the way, the video suggestions of other related videos blocks this part of the install. Very useful otherwise. Thanks!
Thanks a lot a lot for suggestions and leaving a useful comment. I used for metal pieces for every shelf to make it stable.
I think those plastic things are for dampening the bounce of the door
They are
@@k-nemo I couldn't even get mine in so at the moment the door is bouncing on the soft closure
@@foowishamewican Is it problem 1:53? Try 2:01.
@@k-nemo I'll try that thanks. I think those plastic things should take some of the bounce
@@k-nemo Mine didn't come with the plastic tacks to fill the holes? Did you have them yourself?
👏👉💯
Thanks for watching
2:05 I don’t like that they bounce so much
This is all pretty self-explanatory, except for those mysterious little clips. But the end of the video -- in which it becomes clear what they are for -- is utterly obscured by the links to other videos :/
Thanks for watching and leaving a nice, fair comment
I succeeded all the instructions but I can''t make the press&open button work properly.do you have an idea about it? Cause unfortunately this video is useless
Maybe you have the new version of runners?
ruclips.net/video/z3FBissSiGo/видео.html
You saved my marriage
Great to hear it :)
You need to slow down and explain what you’re doing a lot of people having issues and you’re not pointing out what the issue is my hinges don’t fit into the door like that the way yours have
Can you please tell me the time and I will try to help you.
I never understand why people make instructional videos without sound. Would you not say a word when showing someone how to put this together??
No instructions here whatsoever
